(#CAH3-1) Cameo is new, hand stained, made of natural pine resin to which color is added. This is a hand-molded (reproduced from the original shell cameo) cameo of an African American Woman in hat "THE CHURCH HAT LADY", with nice detail, MILK CHOCOLATE BROWN color on a piece of reproduction brass. Mounted on a reproduction brass hair pin glued to cameo; item is 4" long. Intended to be inserted in hair already up, as a beautiful adornment to your hair, the looks is similar to a tiara adornment. They can also be displayed as a new heirloom. Here is what the full hair pin looks like, it is a brass double prong 3-7/8" long, plus the added height of the pine resin cameo on a brass backing. Stunning. The theme of African-American women in cameos is RARE, there is mention of this in the book "Cameos Old New (2nd Edition) by Anna M. Miller, G.G. (I recommend the book for anyone collecting cameos). We've handled THOUSANDS of cameos ourselves, searching out new cameos all over the U.S. and Europe, and we only have FOUR types African-American cameos available to us (one is now out of production).
